Increasing number of surgical procedures is fuelling the adoption of custom procedure trays and packs (CPTP) market during the forecast period. For instance, according to the WHO, global volume of the surgeries performed in 2012 was estimated to 266.2 to 359.5 million, out of which one in every 20 operations globally was done in very-low-expenditure Member States. Increase in geriatric population, who are more likely to develop chronic wounds as they have more medical issues affecting their general health and mobility, has been partly responsible for the growth in procedures and the resultant expansion of the CPTP market. For instance, according to research article in semantics scholar, 15-20% people aged 60+ hospitalized in lifetime with wound causes.

However, it is difficult to quantify the savings that could be generated and to qualify the true benefits until procedure packs are fully utilized. But there may be an opportunities for a better alignment of the functions necessary to generate savings. This will require close working between frontline staff, hospital managers and procurement professionals to design and use packs in the most efficient and cost effective way possible.

Custom procedure trays and packs market is segmented into six major regions- North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa. Rising healthcare awareness levels and government initiatives to lay down the sterility condition in the hospitals is a major factor driving growth of the custom procedure trays and packs market in North America and Europe region. The Government of United Kingdom has formed a 'Trust infection control committee' in 2016, which has formulated specific standards for the degree of sterility to be adhered to inside an operation theatre. The committee has also laid down specifications to prevent infection in other minimally invasive procedures like ophthalmic procedures, which would require minimum downtime. Usage of prepacked, sterilized kits would greatly contribute to the reduction of any nosocomial and iatrogenic infections.
